With all due respect to Benjani [Mwaruwari], I thought Jermain would do better for us and so far it's been proved right.
They want to deport sports people like Benjani Mwaruwari yet they have 400 companies here, but we didn't take them. After the election we are going to do something
We're a little bit light on numbers at the moment. A number of the guys are carrying injuries, so that will have an impact, and that's difficult when you've got games coming up thick and fast; you have to have a fit and able squad. We've lost Benjani again at the weekend with a hamstring and he'll probably be out for a number of weeks.
People looked at the week that we had ahead of us - with Arsenal, Schalke and Manchester United - and they felt it might be beyond us
It was the right move for me ... To go into the Premier League was certainly a step up. I told everyone how great it is to play in the Bundesliga and that the stadiums were only the best - but in the Premiership the level is even higher. The world's best players all compete for a place on a team. It is great for me to be there and to be important for my team.
Vincent is a very accomplished football player ... The change possibly surprised people in my selection. In Germany people have seen him play in that position many, many times. It was important to have his calmness on the ball, and I think he really excelled - and we enjoyed his performance.
The change was no surprise to me ... Since my move to City, I only played in midfield - and my performances were very, very good. But I knew the coach signed me because I could help defence in case of injuries. That is no problem for me - I know my role. I always knew I could help the team in defence sooner or later.
